The final two pieces of chrome. The rocker panels were pitted and beat up. I tapped out the dents. Then I dry sanded 120 grit and wet sanded 240, 320, 400, 600, 800 1000 and 1500 the buffed using white compound. Lots of work but a huge difference.

Thanks that’s the ones I purchased!

I have a bunch of folks interested. I am prioritizing. Please hold of any further PM’s. I will close this thread when it finally ships out. Thanks

I just finished my interior color change on my 1970 Sport Satellite and have a set of custom vinyl seat covers for anyone in need of something better than they currently have. They are older but in nice shape and were not used much so they look like the pictures show. No worn spots or rips or...

Hi Frank, I went to talk with Sonny’s in Tempe https://yelp.to/h8nMgFNF7i they had good reviews. Their quote was fair for upholstery work compared to other shops. And I talked with them in person for a while. In the end I decided to do the work myself a few weeks ago. My work came out very good...

I recall seeing a thread somewhere, but can’t find it after a search indicating that a certain Ford rocker panel clip will fit in 1970 GTX or sport satellite rocker molding. Does anybody recall this and if so, what Ford clip was that? thanks MF

Ok after some more research I believe this is called a bayonet and it looks like 15”. It even says 15B on the arm.

I found my wiper arms. They never had blades on them. They are Anco made in the USA. Were these the originals? Also what type/size of wipers do I need for these? They look like some type of press fit since there are no holes or barbs etc on the end.

Wow it’s hot driving a car like this on a day like this in AZ with no AC! It’s on the list but low priority. The interior is done and it’s time to focus on the drivetrain. Not sure I am physically up for it but then again I need to continue my PT anyhoo…. Flower Power!

Temporary covers to protect the white pristine vinyl underneath while I work on the car. I think they’re perfect.

Interesting comments. Does the factory service manual say anything about this? I sure as hell couldn’t find anything. But then again the service manual can be very difficult to find specific things.

So I am trying to figure out the correct color orientation of the red white and blue monikers on say the 1970 GTX and Sport Satellite. This would include the grill emblem and the ones on the interior of the doors. I looked at a bunch of what I thought were original cars but found a mixed bunch...

True but I would like to wash the popsicle from time to time!

Restored the grab handle bezel. New padded handle. I also tried using Velcro to attach the panel. Jury still out. I’ll probably use the clips on the other side.

Considering the cost of the door panels I decided to make them impervious to water damage. I sprayed the backside with Flex Seal spray. Then after it dried I glued a vapor barrier to the backside side.

One more piece left to do.

The rear compartment is done. At some point in the future if the wrinkles don’t smooth out I might pull it tighter but for now I can say it’s decent.
